Spiro Police Chief Michael Draper told 40/29 News his officer received information that Reed, a convicted sex offender, had warrants for his arrest.

The video shows the officer approaching an RV on Ashley Road, just outside the city limits of Spiro.

After knocking on the door, the video shows the officer talking with Reed.

"Mr. Reed, I need to talk to you for a second. My understanding is you've got some warrants out of Missouri. You need to step on outside for me," the officer said.

But instead of stepping outside, the video shows Reed going back into his RV and grabbing a gun.

The body camera video shows the officer struggling with Reed. The officer repeatedly tries to talk Reed into dropping his handgun.

"Mr. Reed, don't do it. Don't do it, Mr. Reed," the officer said.

Redd is heard saying "back off."

The body camera footage shows the men struggling for nearly two minutes. After the camera goes to black from being knocked off the officer, approximately one minute later, a single gunshot can be heard.

"He was doing everything he could to shoot my officer," Draper said. "It just turned south real quick. It was a matter of seconds and he had no other choice."

Draper said that his officer shot Reed in the hip.

Police said Reed is a convicted sex offender who has arrest warrants out of Missouri for child sex charges.

According to the Missouri sex offender database, Reed is currently listed as non-compliant.

Seale believes there may be children in the Spiro area who could potentially be sexual assault victims.

"We have had some reports that he possibly fondled some young kids up around the Spiro area," said Seale. "He (Reed) had the charges in California originally. Then he went to Missouri and now he has charges up there, so, it's apparent that he's got a pattern of this and it's not going to stop."

Currently the Spiro police chief is not releasing the name of the officer involved in the incident.

He told 40/29 News, as per standard policy, that officer is currently on paid leave pending the ongoing investigation.

Reed is currently in stable condition at a Tulsa hospital, according to the sheriff.

When released from the hospital, the sheriff said Reed is facing multiple charges, including assaulting a police officer with a deadly weapon, failing to register as a sex offender and being a felon in possession of a firearm.

The sheriff estimates that Reed had been living in Leflore County for approximately six months.
